Kevin Costner And Octavia Spencer Discuss Their Roles In “Black Or White” Kevin Costner is definitely playing a different sort of role with his latest project, “Black Or White,” where he plays grandfather and guardian to a little biracial girl . This movie looks really good and definitely hits close to home. BLACK OR WHITE is the story of a grandfather (Academy Award® winner Kevin Costner) who is suddenly left to care for his beloved granddaughter. When the little girl’s paternal grandmother (Academy Award® winner Octavia Spencer) seeks custody, a legal battle ensues that forces the families to confront their true feelings on race, forgiveness and understanding. Anchored by an all-star cast and based on real events, the movie is a look at two seemingly different worlds, in which nothing is as simple as black or white. BLACK OR WHITE stars Kevin Costner (Dances with Wolves, Open Range, “Hatfield’s and McCoys”) and Octavia Spencer (The Help, “Red Band Society”), Gillian Jacobs (“Community,” The Box), Jennifer Ehle (Zero Dark Thirty, The King’s Speech), Anthony Mackie (The Hurt Locker, Captain America: The Winter Soldier) and Bill Burr (Date Night, “Breaking Bad”). We know the swirl is a big subject of debate around these parts, do you think this film will do well? “Black Or White” Arrives in theaters next Friday. Will you be watching?
